In 1998, as part of the AA2000 consortium, we were awarded the national and international public bid conducted by the Argentine Government for the concession rights related to the operation of 33 airports in Argentina, including the two largest airports, the Ministro Pistarini International Airport (“Ezeiza Airport”), located at Ezeiza, Buenos Aires, and the Jorge Newbery Aeroparque Airport (“Aeroparque Airport”), located in Buenos Aires.

In 2002, our subsidiary Armenia International Airports CJSC (“AIA”) was awarded the concession to operate the Zvartnots International Airport (“Zvartnots Airport”), located 12 kilometers from downtown Yerevan, Armenia’s capital. In 2003, in a public auction conducted by the Uruguayan Government, we purchased the shares of Puerta del Sur S.A. (“Puerta del Sur”), owner of the concession that operates the General Cesáreo Berisso International Airport (“Carrasco Airport”) in Carrasco, Uruguay, located 19 kilometers from downtown Montevideo, Uruguay’s capital. In 2004, as part of the Terminal Aeroportuaria de Guayaquil S.A.

In 2007, we executed an amendment to the Zvartnots Airport concession agreement to include Shirak Airport in Gyumri (“Shirak Airport”), the second largest civil airport in Armenia. In 2008, in a private transaction, we acquired all of the equity interests of Consorcio Aeropuertos Internacionales S.A. (“CAISA”), which owns the concession that operates the Carlos A. Curbelo Airport (“Punta del Este Airport”) located in Maldonado, by Punta del Este, Uruguay. In 2008, as part of the consortium Aeropuerto de Bahía Blanca S.A. (“BBL”), we were awarded the concession to operate Aeropuerto de Bahía Blanca (“Bahía Blanca Airport”), our 35th airport in Argentina. In 2011, as part of the consortium Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú S.A. (“AAP”), we were awarded the concession to operate six principal airports in southern Peru (the ‘‘AAP Airports’’). Currently, we operate five of the six airports that are part of the AAP concession agreement. In 2011, as part of the consortium Aeropuertos Ecológicos de Galápagos S.A. (“ECOGAL”), we were awarded the concession to operate the Seymour Airport 4, rue de la Grêve, L-1643 Luxembourg - +352 26 25 82 74 www.corporacionamericaairports.com 3 (“Galapagos Airport”), located in Baltra Island, Galapagos Archipelago, our second airport in Ecuador.

In 2012, as part of the consortium ICAB, we were awarded the concession to operate the Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek International Airport (“Brasilia Airport”), located 11 kilometers from downtown Brasilia, Brazil’s capital. In 2012, we formed A.C.I. Airports International S.à r.l. to hold, either directly or indirectly, our interests in various companies that own our airport concessions. In 2014, we acquired controlling interests in the companies that own the Aeroporto Galileo Galilei di Pisa (“Pisa Airport”) located in Pisa, Italy, and the Aeroporto di Firenze (“Florence Airport,” and together with Pisa Airport, the “Italian Airports”) located in Florence, Italy, through a number of private acquisitions with former shareholders as well as the consummation of two public tender offers. In 2015, we merged the two companies that operated the Italian Airports to form Toscana Aeroporti S.p.A. (“TA”), a company publicly listed on the Milan Stock Exchange (Borsa Italiana) and of which we own 51.1% of the issued and outstanding common stock. The concessions for the Pisa Airport and the Florence Airport have been transferred to TA. In 2014, we executed an amendment to the concession agreement of the Carrasco Airport extending the term by 10 years to 2033. In 2015, we completed the Reorganization.

Military Entrepreneurs: Patterns in Latin America Kristina Mani ABSTRACT Despite the recent shift to democratic regimes and market-based economies, in many Latin American countries the military retains important economic roles as owner, manager, and stakeholder in economic enterprises. Such military entrepreneurship poses a chal- lenge to the development of democratic civil-military relations and, by extension, to the development of liberal democracy in the region. While scholars have noted this situation with concern, they have given little attention to distinguishing the different types of military entrepreneurship, which reflect distinct historical patterns and implications. This article identifies two major types of military entrepreneurs in Latin America: industrializers, determined to build national defense capabilities and compete for international prestige; and nation builders, seeking to promote economic development that can foster social development and cohesion. Case studies of Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, and Ecuador demonstrate important differ- ences between these two types in their origins, paths, and political consequences.

  • Pablo Miguel Jacovkis
    Proof Copy Pablo Miguel Jacovkis Introduction Argentina has a long tradition of conflicts between scientific development2 (or educational development) and authoritarian governments.3 Between 1835 and 1852, although he was only Governor of the Buenos Aires Province and responsible for Argentinian Foreign Affairs – that is, a sort of primus inter pares amongst the other thirteen governors – General Juan Manuel de Rosas ruled the country with an iron fist. Among his obscurantist measures we may mention that he stopped paying salaries to the professors at the University of Buenos Aires – the salaries having to be paid exclusively through the tuition of the students, see Buchbinder (2005). The simplified image is reasonably true, that from the establishment of the constitutional republic between 1852 and 1862, education and support for science flourished. We can mention the outstanding work of President Sarmiento (1868–74), who, besides strongly backing 1 The author thanks Amparo Gómez for her kind invitation to participate in the IV Seminar of Politics of Science: Science between Democracy and Dictatorship at the Universidad de La Laguna and to the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation for its economic support through the Research Project FFI2009–09483 and the Complementary Action FFI2010–11969–E.

    BOOMTOWN CHALLENGES: THE CASE OF RINCÓN DE LOS SAUCES, NEUQUÉN A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Development Management and Policy By Megan E. Cook, B.A. Washington, D.C. April 17, 2020 Copyright 2020 by Megan E. Cook All Rights Reserved ii BOOMTOWN CHALLENGES: THE CASE OF RINCÓN DE LOS SAUCES, NEUQUÉN Megan E. Cook, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Eric Langenbacher, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Natural resource boomtowns are communities that experience rapid demographic growth due to their proximity to natural resource-based projects and that confront a well-established series of challenges that strain local government capacity. The thesis aims to better understand the challenges faced by planners and policymakers in responding to growth in natural resource boomtowns using a case study of Rincón de los Sauces in the Argentine province of Neuquén. The town grew rapidly after a nearby major oil discovery in the late 1960s and is again anticipating a boom as Argentina looks to develop its vast unconventional oil and gas resources. Through a review of a variety of primary and secondary sources, this thesis describes the challenges generated for planning and governance by rapid, natural-resource based growth in Rincón de los Sauces and seeks to explain how policymakers have approached planning and management in this context. It finds that planners and policymakers have drawn on a variety of approaches to plan for growth including seeking to learn from the experiences of other towns, using a variety of sources to make projections, promoting flexibility and adaptability, encouraging community participation, promoting a central role for the local government and seeking outside support when necessary.
